Configure in B2Win Suite​

Go to Configurations > Services and open the Infor ION service. On the Details tab, fill in the following:

  • Name — A unique name to identify this service configuration.
  • ION API File — Upload the .ionapi file from step 7. This file contains all the connection details needed for the IDM service.

Click Save when done.

Infor DataFabric DB Connection​

The same .ionapi file can also be used when creating a DB Connection that connects to Infor DataFabric. When adding a new DB Connection in Configurations > DB Connections, select the Infor Compass JDBC driver and upload the .ionapi file from step 7. This gives B2Win Suite direct SQL-like query access to DataFabric data, which can then be used in Visual Query, Query Trigger, and other database-driven nodes.

Troubleshooting​

  • Verify the .ionapi file has not expired or been revoked in the Infor OS Portal.
  • Confirm the authorized app in ION API has the required permissions for IDM operations.
  • Check that the B2Win Suite server can reach the Infor ION API gateway URL.
  • If document uploads fail, verify the Document Type specified in the node is valid in your IDM environment.
